From the images it is clear that the industrial design of the controllers that Microsoft are producing is cutting edge and some of the finest design and production of products I have seen.

I believe they really understand gamers, and the design of the Xbox elite appeals not just to hardcore gamers, but instead of a broad scale to those with a taste for something a bit different from the norm.

Its a sensible yet modern controller design that sets Microsoft apart from other consoles. The Playstation 4 controller for example, although it has somewhat significantly changed its shape from previous versions has remained much the same, and its always been for me at least an uncomfortable controller to hold for long periods of time. Design wise it doesn’t really look like a controller for a gamer, and more like a steering wheel for a Formula One racing driver.

I have always enjoyed playing Gears of War online, and enjoy helping others out too. Analysing gameplay and always improving and sharing my experience.
